Rich and Poor Enjoying a St. Joseph Fete Tégether—Personal Mention. Mrs. Samuel Norment gave an ante-nup- tial reception last night in honor of her daughter, Miss Norment, whose marriage to Mr. Albert D. Booz of Philadelphia will teke place tomorrow morning. Desiring to have the wedding ceremony a very quiet one and attended only by the relatives of the two families the handsome reception last night gave the large circle of friends of the bride a chance to express their best wishes for her future happiness. The Nor- ment mansion, which is the large double house 928 M street, was decked from end te end with flowers and presented a most tasteful appearance, its rich permanent ornamentation being enhanced by the lay- ish use of trailing vines, blooming plants and quantities of fine flowers. In the large parlor where the hostess and her daughter received the mirrors were draped with smilax and and American beauty rcses and orchids made glowing chumps of color in every direction. In the dining room and library the walls were covered with clematis vines, the mantels bar.ked with roses, and on the supper table there was a centerpiece of American beauty roses. An orchestra played through- out the evening. Mrs. Norment wore an elegant gown of laverder brocade, trimmed with Sea of a deeper shade and point applique lace. The fair young bride-elect wore a gown of white satin, which suggested her wedding day. It was of rich white satin, studded with rhine stones. The elbow sleeves were of puffed tulle and a border of white roses in folds of tulled trimmed the low-necked bodice. Mrs. Leroy M. Taylor, sister of the hostess, in a gown of black and white brocade and spangled net; Mrs. Taylor, jr., in white brocaded satin and beaded net; Mrs. Albert Booz of Philadelphia, mother of the groom-elect; Mrs. Winfield of Jersey City, Miss Turah Gettings, Miss Lilian Plant, Miss May Joyce, Miss Kloman and Miss Cook, the latter group of young ladies the intimate friends of Miss Norment, as- sisted in r€ceiving. Among those present were Judge and Mrs. Jeremiah Wilson, Mr. John W. Thompson, Miss Ida Thompson, Judge and Mrs. McComas, Mr. and Mrs. Albert Booz, Miss Laura Headley, Judge Winfield of Jersey City, Mr. and Mrs. M. W.” Bever- idge, Colonel and Mrs. John M. Wilson, Captain and Mrs. George Wilson, Major and Mrs. Montgomery, Mr. and Mrs. George H. Plant, jr., Miss Plant, Mr. and Mrs. Maurice Joyce, Miss Joyce, Mr. and Mrs. Butterworth, Benjamin Butterworth, jr., Mr. Harry Moses, Mrs. W. B. Moses, Judge and Mrs. Cole, the Misses Fowler, Mr. and Mrs. John Mitchell, Mr. and Mrs. John Elder and Justice and the Misses Morris. Mrs. L. M. Taylor will give a dinner to- night in honor of Miss Norment and Mr. Bcoz. Society paid its devoirs today to the in- mates of the Home for the Aged, under the care of the Little Sisters of the Poor. The feast of St. Joseph, being the patronal feast of the house, is always welcomed gladly by the old people, and the celebra- tion today was up to the usual standard as regards their participation in it and the at- traction it held for the benefactors of the institution, who are the waiters and waitresses for the occasion. A general air of festivity reigned throvghout the whole building, and after 12 o'clock, when the outsiders commenced to arrive, it took very little penetration to discern that something out of the common was in progress. At 12:39 dinner was served in the half dozen or more refectories in various parts of the institution. Being a day when meat is al- lowed by the Lenten regulations, the din- ner, which was most appetizingly cooked and served, consisted of a good soup, a roast and several vegetables, with cake, fruit and ice cream for dessert. Most of the old people were well and able to be at table, while those in the wards upstairs received additional dainties to their sick fare and were cheered by the presence of visitors and the hearing of strange voices throughout the halls. The past winter has witnessed the decease of some of the in- mates longest of all in the house. One old man died a week ago who had spent twenty peaceful years under its roof, and was in fact one of the very first inmates. His attachment was so great that, knowing that the German societies to which he be- longed would give him a funeral from their own rooms, he anticipated their desire and made it his dying wish that he would be taken from the home only to the cemetery. An old “Aunty.” who had held that re- lation to several generations and who was always a conspicuous figure on fete days, also died during the past winter at the venerable age of 107. She had been childish for many years and spent her time Playing with a doll, but shortly before her death all her senses were restored and she never touched her beloved doll again. The French ambassador, M. Patenotre, Mr. Boeufve, chancellor of the embassy, Mr. Paul Johnson, Mr. W. F. Downey and oth- ers were present today, with the Misses Riggs, Patten and other ladies to serve and wait upon the old folks at table. After dinner the guests were entertained by sing- ing and dancing in the old men’s refectory, and later the inmates, guests and sisters assembled in the chapel, where they as- sisted at benediction given by the house chaplain. The social and intellectual treats of Thursday, which is Mi-Careme, are just numerous enough to delightfully entertain those who may have felt the lack since Lent came. Mr. and Mrs. I. 8. Howland wiil give a tea, 4 to 7, and Lady Pauncefote Ie Jnvitations out for ee at the em- sy a o'clock, so that no on conflicts with another. aoe: Mr. and Mrs. Howland gave a dinner last night as a farewell compliment to Marquis Imperiali,who leaves here shortly. Miss Belle R. Houghton, daughter of Capt. and Mrs. Houghton, and Mr. w. Irving Calver of Hagerstown, Md., were married yesterday at the residence of the bride’s parents, in the presence of a large company of their friends. Rev. J. B. Stitt of Dumbarton M. E. Church officiated, and the couple stood in a floral bower under a chime of floral wedding bells during the ceremony. The bride was attended by her little nephew, Norman Houghton, dressed in a page’s costume of black velvet with pink silk shirt, and carrying a basket heap- ed with pink roses, The bride’s gown was of white silk, the skirt trimmed with a fiounce of point lace. The corsage was trimmed with pcint lace, with pearl and crystal passementeries, the lew neck garlanded with orange blossoms and the tulle veil fastened with a cluster of the same bridal flowers. The bouquet carried was of lilies of the valley. Mrs. Houghton, mother of the bride, wore a handsome costume of brown satin, with cocque feather trimming on the skirt and iridescent passementerie on the corsage and about the short velvet jacket. Mrs. Early D. Gore, who was one of the house party, wore gray crepon, and Mrs. Roach, also of the house party, wore a gown of cerise crepon.
